Thieves And Villains - Settle New York, Settle Lyrics

New York was a blur, her face is flushed<br />
As if a bitter cold Brooklyn shook it out as if it touched<br />
She says, I used to sleep without a stir<br />
But these nights I toss and turn<br />
While everything I love is caught between, caught between<br />
<br />
So settle New York, wipe the frost off of Brooklyn<br />
'Til it's lost on you, settle into<br />
<br />
New York was a blur, the streets ran wild<br />
With the lights and sounds for youth on trial<br />
The air is crisp with smoke as we tread the streets alone<br />
Slipping in and out of bars as we battle our way home<br />
<br />
So settle New York, wipe the frost off of Brooklyn<br />
'Til it's lost on you, I'm settling into something I should do<br />
<br />
Come on ma'am, please see me off<br />
I depart at quarter to, you've only lost<br />
A couple of minutes of the time we've left<br />
<br />
Chase that lush with a drink, she says<br />
I have got bigger problems than this<br />
It was that faith that I could find us a home<br />
But I'm damn sure this cities swallowed me whole<br />
<br />
Settle New York, wipe the frost off of Brooklyn<br />
'Til it's lost on you, I'm settling into something I should do<br />
<br />
Come on ma'am, please see me off<br />
I depart at quarter to, you've only lost<br />
A couple of minutes of the time we've left<br />
<br />
New York was a blur, the colors flushed<br />
As if a bitter cold Brooklyn shook it out as if it touched<br />
She says, I used to sleep without a stir<br />
But these nights I toss and turn<br />
[Incomprehensible] caught between, caught between
